Mathematics
1 answer:
White raven [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

20 men will paint the same wall in 3/4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information is:

5 men paint a wall in 3 hours

Let x be the number of men

It is also mentioned that the rate will be same with x men. So we have to put both the rates/proportions equivalent to find the number of men.

So,

men * hours = men*hours\\5*3 = x*\frac{3}{4}\\15 = \frac{3}{4}x\\x = \frac{4}{3} * 15\\x = 20

Hence,

20 men will paint the same wall in 3/4 hours.

yan [13]

Answer:

<h3>            x = -9,  y = -13 </h3><h3>    or    x = 13,   y = 9</h3><h3>    or    x = -13,  y = -9</h3><h3>    or     x = 9,   y = 13</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+y^2=250\\\\x^2-2xy+y^2+2xy=250\\\\(x-y)^2=250-2xy\\\\(x-y)^2=250-2\cdot117\\\\ (x-y)^2=16\\\\x-y=4\qquad\qquad\vee\qquad \qquad  x-y=-4\\\\x=4+y \qquad\qquad \vee\qquad\qquad x=-4+y\\\\(y+4)y=117\qquad\vee\qquad\quad (y-4)y=117\\\\y^2+4y-117=0\qquad\vee\qquad y^2-4y-117=0\\\\y=\dfrac{-4\pm\sqrt{4^2-4(-117)}}{2\cdot1}\qquad\vee\qquad y=\dfrac{4\pm\sqrt{4^2-4(-117)}}{2\cdot1}\\\\y=\dfrac{-4\pm\sqrt{16+468}}{2}\qquad\ \ \vee\qquad y=\dfrac{4\pm\sqrt{16+468}}{2}

y_1=\dfrac{-4-22}{2}\ ,\quad y_2=\dfrac{-4+22}{2}\ ,\quad y_3=\dfrac{4-22}{2}\ ,\quad y_4=\dfrac{4+22}{2}\\\\y_1=-13\ ,\qquad y_2=9\ ,\qquad\quad\qquad\ y_3=-9\ ,\qquad y_4=13\\\\x_{1,2}=4+y_{1,2}\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad x_{3,4}=-4+y_{3,4}\\\\x_1=-9\ ,\qquad x_2=13\ ,\qquad\quad\qquad x_3=-13\ ,\qquad x_4=9

There are many square prisms with volume 125 in. Let w represent the side length of the square base and h represent the height i
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

5in by 5in by 5in

Step-by-step explanation:

We are not told wat to find but we can as well find the dimension of the prism that will minimize its surface area.

Given

Volume = 125in³

Formula

V = w²h ..... 1

S = 2w²+4wh ..... 2

w is the side length of the square base

h is the height of the prism

125 = w²h

h = 125/w² ..... 3

Substitute eqn 3 into 2 as shown

S = 2w²+4wh

S = 2w²+4w(125/w²)

S = 2w²+500/w

To minimize the surface area, dS/dw = 0

dS/dw =4w-500/w²

0= 4w-500/w²

Multiply through by w²

0 = 4w³-500

-4w³ = -500

w³ = 500/4

w³ =125

w = cuberoot(125)

w = 5in

Get the height

125 =w²h

125 = 25h

h = 125/25

h = 5in

Hence the dimension of the prism is 5in by 5in by 5in
